    Hi,
    I'm growing 3 different kinds of passion vines and I want to find out if these will cross with each other and make the seeds not come true to the parents. I have the following kinds:

    Passiflora incarnata
    Passiflora caerulea

    and what I believe to be
    Incense, Passiflora incarnata x cincinnata (this one gets very few fruits on it and most don't have seeds - but will it cross with the other ones that do get lots of fruits and seeds?).

    Will these passion vines cross (just by natural pollination) and make my seeds untrue if they are growing close together?

    Any information you can provide me on this would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Onalee
